Okay so what printer do you recommend then thx

There are a lot of good choices out there 
I can see where one would be tempted by that printer and the price. (WB Apprentice)
Sorry folks are a little bitter towards the SD company atm . cant say i would feel differently if I felt robbed.
A dual head pre assembled printer with a heated bed is a little tough at that price point.
Flashforge creator Pro dual head great ABS machine About $1199
Flashforge Dreamer Great PLA MAchine $999
Printrbot Simple metal Single head no Heat bed 4x4x4.5 print area $599
Folger Tech Cloner Dual head heat bed open KIT $ 379

Your better off buying a Chinese 3d printer, At least they send you what you pay for.
and they answer their F)(*&ing emails.

I ordered one early last year and after 3 months of waiting and emails it never showed. I had my credit card refund my money and when that happened I received a phone call from Solidoodle stating they had my printer in the box ready to ship. I told them no and only received a refund from my credit card company.

Go on ebay and watch for printers to go up. Last year there were multiple Workbench printers that were new that were at $1,000 or less USD. I bought a used Solidoodle 3 for $350 USD and modded it, just been lazy regarding my Z wobble slight issue because acetone finishing corrects it.

Moral of story, do not order from Solidoodle website and if you already did, get your credit card company to refund ASAP.
